Q-Poll: Lieberman 55%, Lamont 40%

Anti-war Connecticut U.S. Senate candidate Ned Lamont has gained ground on Sen. Joseph Lieberman, and now trails the incumbent 55 - 40 percent among likely Democratic primary voters, including undecided voters who are leaning towards a candidate, according to a Quinnipiac University poll released today.

Lieberman's approval among Democrats is 49-38 (down from 60-31 a month ago).

Update: Another significant number in this poll is that 76% of registered Democrats still "haven't heard enough" about Ned Lamont to have a favorable/unfavorable opnion of him, down from 90% in May. He still isn't very well-known in the state at all.

And a reminder, if you are anywhere near New Haven, show up for the MoveOn/DFA rally today at noon!
